I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'dull games' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't tell whether it can be defined by this definition.

'careworn sods suffering' is the wordplay.
'suffering' indicates anagramming the letters.
'careworn'+'sods'='carewornsods'
'carewornsods' with letters rearranged gives 'NO-SCORE DRAWS'.

'such' acts as a link.
